The Cure

The measure of a watchable film for me is how long it holds me; this one was about 60% until the soundtrack and the daft action got to me. The soundtrack is incessant drumbeat; sometimes there are layered sounds such as "music", police siren, sounds of actors, etc. but the music conquers all for its constant boring beat. The action from before halfway got really silly; we were supposed to believe that some hired guns would have sub-machine guns and other weapons as if going to war, and acting as if that was the case when it was just a trio of scientists they were up against. Really this was 2 out of 10 because of the above but somehow I was held, so there must have been something more interesting than the usual ... possibly some reasonable acting.

It's a OK movie with an OK story.

I like the flashback parts in the movie which is a big plus. Background music is good. However, the movie lacks depth in screenplay and lots of plot hole.The actors were OK.

For the budget they have spent, we cant ask for great graphics. A better characterization for all the actors and more screen time for CEO would have made the film better.

Its definitely not a 3.5 movie or worst movie I have ever seen. It deserves 6 for trying.

I liked it because the initial 30 minutes were gripping and I will give it a 6 for their attempt.

I was very interested in the subject matter regarding this movie. I do honestly believe that there are cures for cancer and other diseases, however the powers that be, do not want for these cures to be in the public domain.

I wanted for this to be a good movie, such as Outbreak with Dustin Hoffman, however this really fell short of that, and to be honest I am being generous to give it a six out of ten.

If you are into conspiracy then you will probably enjoy this film, as it will be the same subject matter that you read and believe in. If you are not however then the film is not too bad to watch and as long as you keep an open mind and try not to analyse it too much, then it is a pretty good hour odd spent on the sofa.

Would I purchase this at full price. Honest answer is no. At a budget price then yes it would be a good shelf filler. Would I watch it again, yes maybe in a few months or more. It would not be a movie that you could watch twice in one week, unlike some other movies.

This is potentially the worst film I have ever seen. Without spoilers, as there are no surprises

There are no surprises, the actors are awful, the storyline is questionable and it was a total waste of 1,5 hours.

Award for bad acting goes to this movie.

I seriously recommend NOT watching this movie. Not even the concept of it is particularly appealing.

There was no point in the movie that sparked an interest in me. Boredom and the fact that I bought the movie kept me from stopping it at an earlier stage.

Awaiting The Cure 2, where the same actions will be performed by different people in a different pharmaceutical company.

Okay, there's a number of reviews here already ranging from horrible to mediocre. They really should be sufficient to give you the right idea. But on the off chance they don't...

I started watching The Cure with the best intentions as I'd read no reviews. I figured it'd be in the same vein as Contagion or REC. This is not that film.

Go ahead and watch if you wish. Ignore the warnings presented to you. In a digital era there's little harm in giving something 15 minutes. But! If after 15 minutes the alarms in your mind have yet to ring out "Hmmm this is a bit rubbish" maybe you'll be able to manage the rest of the movie and be amongst those who'd rate this a 5.
